Beggars, thieves and angels

Thanks Jenny didn’t know how to edit that extra info..

It was any colour, any veggie, peppers just happened to be the favourite. The only veggie-eating cat I have ever come across!

I dog sat two big labradors. I was expecting stealing, begging because of their size and breed. But nope, they were angels.

Take them to the vet immediately ! They are impostor Labradors for sure!

On this sit I’ve been warned about leaving food out with these three “rugged” hairy thieves!

The Home Owner has sorted things out so well for me! A massive larder, double fridge and yes the top of the extractor fan is just too high!

When they go high ; we go HIGHER!

With relentless sit pets, I put all food away, including in the oven and microwave as needed.

I sat a pair of crafty cats that would easily break into cabinets, including child-proofed ones. I used the oven, microwave and such to store food. Plus, after they’d knocked over a cat food canister onto the floor to break in, I put the canisters into the washing machine, because their food was stored in the laundry/utility room.

They loved to sleep with me, but boycotted me the night I put their food canisters unreachably into washing machine. :rofl:

Food laundering is a new one on me! Those cats just weren’t smart enough! I love to read about how sitters outwitted the greedy guts!

On my last sit the dog waited till I fell asleep then raided my trouser pockets to get the bag of treats! He also got the tennis ball and destroyed it! I felt so mad when I woke up!

So next time I hid my clothes under the bedding! (Yes we shared the room but not the bed,on this occasion)

.. game changer ! Fool me ONCE! Ha ha!

This is one of my brother cats I sit for - Gandalf. Unfortunately he spends all day eating all food available for his brother, his elder sister as well as his food. So now they have chip feeders but he runs to the kitchen every time anyone goes there and begs for food! :laughing:

Those big soulful eyes! Well he carries it well! “What fat cat, me?”

What a lovely story! and photo! Thanks for sharing!

LOL you nailed him!

Ok so this is what I bring with me on sits if I’m coming by car.

The owner told me in advance not to leave anything out in the way of food.. that’s become a recurring theme! So I come prepared.

I have a large cool box and the handle locks it. I use plastic containers to keep things fresh and out of harm’s way. They originally had roast chickens in so no big deal if I leave them behind.

I don’t eat their food, so don’t accept a dog eating mine!
